The government plans to introduce digital content based peer inspection system removing the existing old and manual inspection and auditing system of educational institutions.
The ministry of education has taken the initiative to ensure transparency and accountability in the inspection and auditing system and improve the quality of education, official sources said. Education secretary Md. Nazrul Islam Khan said, “The proposed peer inspection system would ensure inspection and audit of 30,000 educational institutions in a year against the existing manual system of inspection and audit of 1700-2000 educational institutions during the same period”.
He said the “Directorate of Inspection and Audit” of the ministry of education introduced the manual system to inspect and audit schools and colleges and it would have required ten years time to inspect and audit of 30,000 schools, madrashas and colleges.
“But, the proposed peer inspection system will save at least nine years time as well as help bring dynamism, transparency and accountability in the activities of the directorate,” said the education secretary who mooted the idea of introducing peer inspection system.
As per the peer inspection system, heads of similar type of educational institutions of same upazila will inspect each other’s school/college/madrasha and the Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) and education officer will co-operate them to conduct this peer inspection.
The education ministry has also taken initiative to digitize some activities of inspection and auditing directorate to bring dynamism and save time and money. When inspection and auditing started functioning in 1980, the government’s annual budgetary allocation was Tk. 250 crore against 7,500 schools, madrashas and colleges.
